The masquerade party and supper to
be given at Grand Army Hall in Collyer
next Monday evening, Feb. 18th, is ex-
pected to be one of the pleasantest social
events of the season. The proceeds are
to be used in completing the hall, so let
the friends of the veterans attend, if only
to enjoy good supper.
Cold weather prevented large attend

donation party to Rev. J. G. Elliott was
greatly enjoyed by those present. Instru-

and readings, pleased the mind, as did
the supper the appetite. Both pastor and
people will remember the occasion as one
of pleasure.

The reading of the Wild Cat at lthe'
literary society last Saturday evening
created considerable mirth. It seems to
be a looking-glass wherein is reflected
the doings of both young and old, as also
some things purely imaginary. Few
people enjoy other than fattering re-
Elections, so, Mr.. Editor, you will have to
'look leetle out" B. F. Arnold will
edit the next paper, with M. P. Goodwin,
and G. Mcfarland as assistants.
An artistic landscape greeted the eye
Sunday morning, though the atmosphere
was weighted with dampness and chilly
with frost. Every spear of grass, weed,
cbrnb and obiaotS Of ali kinds uoro
decked in glistening whiteness, which
was being continually increased by the
almost invisible sleet. Until Monday
morning the beautiful picture remained;
then the suns rays penetrated the thick
clouds with warmth sufficient to loosen
the icy grasp of the frost and set its pris-
oners free.

BEFORE IT HOLDING PALETTE AND MAHI-sI1CK
graceful outlines of whose figure even the
ugly blue bottomed blouse reaching to her
feet could not hide
Reclining at ease in an old armchair near
the little air-tight stove which served to
warm the interior, was Paul Blake. the
doctors good looking artist nephew, twirl
ing an unfghted cigarette between his slim
white fingers
Before Doctor Blake could step forward
to announce his presence, Paul spoke-evi-
IDENTITY apropos of some thing under discus
sion.
ks no use talking. Doris, he said. some
what petulantly. IF uncle Paul won't give
his consent to our marriage, as you seem to
think, why we must do without it, that's
ali.
Doctor Blake turned very pale a. he
heard these words not intended for his ear.
But pulling himself together with an effort,
he stepped forward
At his unexpected appearance Doris
gave a sudden start and, crimsoning to her
fair temple, threw q cloth over the portrait
But not before Doctor Blake had caught
glimpse Of his nephew's broad white fore
head and expressive eyes
The Doctor, pretending to have heard md
seen nothing, greeted Paul with his usual
easy courtesy. But that usually self-p9s-
seDed young man, muttering something
about previous engagement, made hasty
exit leaving the Doctor and his ward alcns
together
Silent and distreit. and utterly unlike the
